[Azalea's POV] The next day

As soon as I get home from school, I change into my pajamas and jump into bed, planning to do nothing all day. I make myself comfortable and turn on my phone. I don't know what I was expecting, but a blank screen disappoints me. I thought Ashton would at least text me or something. I haven't seen him all day; even at school, our conversations were short because football season has begun and he was busy with tryouts. I open up my messages with Ashton and text him instead.

Azalea: Forget what happened yesterday ok? I was drunk

His reply comes back in less than a minute.

Ashton: -.- I kissed u, I think I would've smelled alcohol

Azalea: I brushed my teeth ok

Ashton: Right.

Ugh, he knows I'm lying.

Ashton: BTW, I was thinking last night. And I realized u have another weakness. Or a flaw, whatever.

Azalea: What

Ashton: You're horrible at holding grudges. U forgive too easily.

Azalea: No I don't

Ashton: That's another weakness. U can't admit to being weak

Azalea: Shut up

Ashton: Come on, Azalea. Don't be shy. We had such a touching conversation yesterday. I've seen you exposed to the world like a peeled potato.

Azalea: Well ur weakness is that u can't admit ur a dick

Ashton: Great start. Why don't you text me one of ur flaws every day

Azalea: No

Ashton: I'll go first. I'm addicted to sex

Azalea: Yeah no shit

Ashton: It's a serious condition. People go to therapy for it.

Azalea: I'm sure they do

Ashton: Now you go.

Azalea: R we Srsly doing this

Ashton: Yeah, I told u one of mine. So it's ur turn

Ashton: Hellllo??? Azalea

Azalea: Fine

Azalea: I fall in love too easily

Ashton: lmao I guess we're going for the most obvious ones first ??

I roll my eyes. I start typing something back in response, but then my bedroom door creaks open and Violet peeks her head in. She's cleaned up, wearing a cute floral skirt and a graphic tee that says 'Philadelphia Eagles'.

"Can we talk?" She asks, her voice soft.

"Sure. Come in."

Violet takes baby steps towards me and sits by the foot of my bed, careful not to sit on top of me. I look at my sister with bleary eyes, waiting for her to speak.

"I'm sorry I slept with Ashton," Violet says, almost too quiet for me to catch. "I know it was really...shocking to see me and him together, but it was my first time and I didn't know what I was doing either-"
